I am new to Knoppix. I downloaded it on friday through bitorrent, and burned the ISO file at 2x speed. My computer meets all the requirements and I was able to use Knoppix Friday night, all day Saturday and most of Sunday. On Sunday I was using Knoppix on my laptop while I used my main computer for other applications. When I put my DvD into the main computer and restarted it, I got a Buffer I/O error; i know these come from a corrupt or incomplete ISO file. That is not my problem. My problem is that after the Kernel paniced I ejected the CD and restarted my computer, it took me to the Knoppix boot prompt without the DvD in the drive. I did not partition it to my hard drive. Basically it goes through the same errors, panics, I restart and I'm back at the boot prompt screen. Is it because I could not properly exit Knoppix that some of it is still on the hard drive and loading first before Windows XP does? How would I go about fixing this? I was thinking of trying to burn another DvD and putting it into the drive and hoping it would fix the error and I could exit the program correctly. Any help would be great.
